Chapter 114: Chapter 114 Like Coaxing a Child

"What are you thinking about?" Seeing her somewhat absent-minded, Sheng Ting inquired as he looked at her.

"Nothing much, where are we going later?" Shen Weiyi asked, lifting her head.

Sheng Ting said, "Aside from being by the sea, there’s nothing special about this town." This place has a simple population and is relatively quiet. If we’re talking about entertainment, it definitely can’t compare to those developed beaches.

"However, there was a high tide last night, and it should be nearly low tide now. If you don’t find it boring, we could take another walk by the seaside later."

"Great!"

After breakfast, the two went to the beach from the day before and found that the tide had indeed risen a lot, but now it was slowly receding.

There were many more people on the beach, each holding tools, waiting for the tide to go out.

There were both adults and children; it was quite lively.

Shen Weiyi, looking at the empty-handed herself and Sheng Ting, said, "Should we also prepare some tools?"

"Wait for me a moment." Sheng Ting left and soon returned with a little red bucket and a small shovel in his hands.

"Where did you get them?" Shen Weiyi asked curiously.

There didn’t seem to be any places selling tools nearby, and in such a short time, it wasn’t possible he had gone back to get them.

Sheng Ting pointed towards a group of children by the beach and said, "I bought them from them."

Close to the seaside, every household prepares some shellfishing tools, even the children each have a set. Of course, they’re not intended for them to go shellfishing, mainly for them to play with.

The people in the town are quite simple, and the children are the same. When they heard Sheng Ting wanted to buy, they sold to him.

They could easily run home and grab another since it wasn’t far. If worse came to worst, they could collect with their bare hands. As for holding what they found, that was even simpler. They could just take off their tank tops, tie a knot at the bottom, and turn them into a net.

"Let’s go, let’s see what we can find?" Sheng Ting handed the small shovel to Shen Weiyi.

As the tide receded, it revealed the fine, soft white sands. There were many more trails of small animals on the beach. Shen Weiyi casually dug and found a razor clam, showing it off to Sheng Ting like treasure, "Look, I found one!"

The young girl’s smile blossomed like flowers, the sunlight shining on her face, making her complexion appear even fairer and more translucent. Her dark, bright eyes shimmered with gleaming light under the gaze.

What filled Sheng Ting’s eyes was the girl’s unrestrained and radiant face, as sweet as candied fruit, just like when he first saw her. He couldn’t help but his lips slowly curled up as he said, "Hmm, you’re really great!"

Shen Weiyi blushed inexplicably when she met his gaze, feeling as if he was talking to her like a little child.

Looking back at her own actions, they did indeed resemble those of a child seeking approval, waiting for praise.

Shen Weiyi immediately felt embarrassed and averted her gaze, pretending to continue digging for razor clams.

She wasn’t sure if it was because her luck had been too good earlier or if her luck had turned bad, but she dug several holes and didn’t find another.

However, she was fortunate to find plenty of clams and even some shrimp and green crabs.

It wasn’t until nearly noon that Shen Weiyi, not quite ready to leave, prepared to head back.

Looking at the nearly full little bucket, she felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction and pride.

She had picked all of these herself.

As for Sheng Ting, Shen Weiyi never expected him to lift a finger.

However, they didn’t take any of these things back with them. They had seafood just yesterday, so Shen Weiyi didn’t really feel like having it again today.

In the end, they gave all the seafood to the children who were at the beach.

On the way back, Shen Weiyi looked at Sheng Ting and said, "Thank you, I had a lot of fun." If it wasn’t for him, her mood wouldn’t have recovered so quickly.
